[@NeoFalcon69]

An honour having Canada as a big commonwealth brother. Greetings from New Zealand.

[@EnderBloxRules]

Well hello New Zealand! Greetings from your Northern Brother, Canada!

[@frogs743]

i love you.

[@sandyv123]

greetings from the US, god bless you all.

[@yegfreethinker]

You're anthem can bring me to tears. When I heard it after the Christchurch horror I couldn't believe how much emotion washed over me. I think God Defend New Zealand is one of the most beautiful albums in the world.

[@mike4816251]

I am American..and PROUD of it..This is a great clip..and I for one am very grateful to my neighbors north of me ..you have ALWAYS supported my Country..thank you ..

[@AlbertanPixie]

Our national anthem has always made me tear up. What an amazing arrangement!!!!!💜🇨🇦💜

[@elizabethcherry8325]

This is the most beautiful arrangement of “O Canada” that I have ever heard. Thank you, ESO!! ❤️

[@catherineklug]

This is one of the most gorgeous versions of our anthem I've heard.

[@MidnightGamingAllGaming]

Catherine Klug yes it is

[@MrRedneckman100]

Catherine Klug oh canada!

[@chapliecharlin]

[@snowqueen835]

Agreed! ❤❤❤

[@LacusScientiae]

A hauntingly beautiful anthem for a beautiful nation. I'm so glad Canada is our neighbor. Love, an American.

[@xfinity319]

LacusScientiae I wish we could feel the same about you guys... jk...kind of... lol

[@kp67]

we love u too!

[@bonanzajoe]

Despite our media and Liberal government, most Canadians love America and Americans with a passion. We are cousins: always were and always will be. God bless us, His children.

[@rahdidewin2970]

I hope that love goes well too to the another neighbor, Mexico

[@bonanzajoe]

@@rahdidewin2970 Yes, if only our leaders and politicians understood it.

[@raymondshutt1289]

Our cousins to the North came through this horrific day as they always do. With magnificent dignity and courage. Oh, Canada, we stand on guard with thee. God bless you all.

[@Herediapormediacalle]

C'est une très belle version du hymne! Bien à vous!!

[@bensdadfrank]

There are no word. wonderful performance, wonderful anthem, wonderful neighbors. How do the musicians keep the tears from coming, when they nail it like this!

[@BoyUSMC]

This has to be the most beautiful versions of "Oh, Canada" I have ever heard. Truly inspiring and uplifting. Certainly gives me a sense of pride in this American's heart that my Great Grandparents headed south to the USA.

[@Lorac73]

Carol from Australia. Your anthem is awesome. God bless Canadians.

[@carolekavelman44]

God Bless all the American people who have been so graceful to us Canadians. We are brothers and have been a long time. We are not in competition we are united in our grief for our fallen soldier's whenever and wherever they have fallen. God Bless you too. Carole Anne

[@vacciniumaugustifolium1420]

we are americans too...

[@Ahh.m888]

They added this perfectly in the Canada mod for Civ 5

[@jonmce1]

You will be happy to knw that a you tuber who sets up scenarios to have the computer algorithms play all the countries. In an unrestricted version with all countries represented Canada conquered the world.

Oh wow, how utterly marvelous! I love O Canada (even though I am an American) and this is a spectacular arrangement and performance. Bravo, O Canada! Thanks for posting!

[@SpyCreepersMC]

[@az0963818]

SpyCreeper And...?

[@EnderBloxRules]

SpyCreeper Yes. That is why they call it North America. But get this ... We are "True North." As said in O' Canada. Hehehehe

How can you not help but smile as the tune comes to a beautiful crescendo :'D

[@carolchen2320]

Happy Canada day from LA, misses Vancouver

[@johnchisholm5453]

Brilliant arrangement and performance by the ESO. Our national anthem performed as it should be, with pride and conviction. WOW!

[@elkinalbertomarquezcontrer8110]

Such a beautiful song for such a great nation, It was an honor and pleasure living there for almost a year. I feel Canadian.

[@EnderBloxRules]

It brings a tear to my eyes when I see so many foreign countries sending us Canadians love! It makes "my heart glow." Thank you brother, sister and cousin countries! Love from Canada!

[@shushruthsudhirurwa9161]

Here, take a love from India!

[@AFTERSHOCKCEX]

This is absolutely beautiful! An understated elegance to the whole thing. This music is our signature, and that is how it should have been performed at the 2010 Opening Ceremony.

[@TheCarsche]

Whatever reason you recorded this fabulous song, thank you very much. I am not Canadian, although my favorite grandmother was. I am from US, but I have always held your anthem as one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It tells a story of strength and compassion. The Edmonton Symphony is to be commended for such an incredible job on such an incredible song. BTW, I have been to Edmonton before, and yours is such a beautiful city. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@58Grov]

It still gives me chills. My hometown symphony with two friends playing the most beautiful national anthem is thrilling.

[@dekuelegy]

I'm playing this when I finally drive back into Canada to move there.

[@davefromholland]

Amazing., Love this preform. And love you Canada. XXX From Holland.

[@clam502]

And Canada loves Holland.

[@davefromholland]

Thank you Canada.

[@MrRedneckman100]

Couldn't help to listen to this a 100 times when I visited Montréal Canada. Best version of Oh Canada out there!

[@alecmcgrathofcanada9175]

Most beautiful version of O Canada that I have found so far.

[@shacharkrupnik2286]

im agree with you

[@saxoguy15]

Nothing ever makes me cry... But this legit brought a tear to my eye 😭😭😭😭😭 I LOVE my country!

[@sammylollollol]

This comment section is beautiful so much respect between Canada and America

[@DoseOfNik]

Did anyone else tear up listening to this?

[@UweKoch4U]

I did. What a blast!

[@patatakap]

I hummed along in both English and French-Canadian.^^

[@svvndus]

I am very picky when it comes to my nation's anthem, it has to be perfect. This satisfies me very well.

[@georgexu8196]

i can not help crying, Canada , my homeland, I love you, I miss you!

[@canuckrcp]

The most beautiful rendition of my beloved national anthem. Thank you to the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra and all of your talented musicians.

[@transpiler]

I still keep coming back to this arrangement years later.

[@vegasprepperone]

Just BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

[@UweKoch4U]

The most beautiful version of the Canadian anthem - gorgeous sound, beautifully arranged, and an organ lifting it all to higher grounds. Not to forget the lovely smile of the cello-lady... Thank you for that touching experience. 👏

God Bless Her Majesties Commonwealth of Nations. Three cheers for the Queen of Canada!

[@jamesgraham7239]

Amen

[@az0963818]

Appreciate the centiment but, we have no Queen in Canada...sorry. lol

[@CrowAndRedString]

az0963818 Except we do.

[@az0963818]

Aaron Lewis No..no, we don't..lol. The Queen is a mythological figure head. She has no power here, not even in her native England. The person with the most REAL power in Canada is our governor general, period.

[@CrowAndRedString]

az0963818 The Queen is The Queen, and she is Canada's head of state. Whether she has power or not, you are still wrong.

[@waynemasters]

Stunningly beautiful!

Probably the best version of our National Anthem that I have ever heard.Kudos to the Edmonton Symphony,Allan Gilliland and Bill Eddins. Love to hear this with the addition of of a nice choral group.

[@TheCarsche]

Macdaddy, thank you for your support of 'MY home and native land', the USA. I love my country as I'm sure you do yours. But, I also have a great fondness for Canada. Our two countries have been neighbors, and may we forever remain as friends. God Bless CANADA and God Bless the USA.
